INSTALLATION
A MBIENT C ONDITIONS
The SCO Incubators are intended for use indoors, at room temperatures between 15

C and 30

C
(59

F and 86

F), at no greater than 80% Relative Humidity (at 25

C / 77

F). Allow a minimum of 4
inches (10cm) between the incubator and walls or partitions, and 2 inches (5cm) of clearance
above the top of the incubator for unobstructed airflow.
Operating the unit outside of these conditions may adversely affect the temperature range
and stability.
L OCATION
When selecting a location to install the incubator, consider all environmental conditions that can
affect the
unit’s effective temperature range, uniformity, and stability. For example:
 Ovens, autoclaves, and any device that produces significant radiant heat
 Heating and cooling ducts, or other sources of fast moving air currents
 High-traffic areas
 Direct sunlight
P OWER S OURCE
Note: Electrical supply to the incubator must conform to all national and local electrical codes.
Always position the unit so that the end-user has access to the power cord.
When selecting a location for an SCO incubator verify that the earth-grounded wall power source
matches the voltage and ampere requirements listed on the incubator data plate. Supplied voltage
must not vary more than 10% from the data plate rating. Damage to the incubator may result
if supplied voltage varies more than 10%.Use a separate circuit to prevent loss of product due to
overloading or circuit failure.
These incubators are intended for a 50/60 Hz application at the following amperages:
SC058 SCO40 SCO31
15 Amps 15 Amps 14.5 Amps
If the requirements match the power source, plug the power cord into the earth grounded outlet.
These units are provided with an 115V 2.5m, NEMA 5-20P power supply cord.
